  • Direct Democracy to the Impact of Progressive Politics
    THE VERMONT DIFFERENCE: DIRECT DEMOCRACY TO THE IMPACT OF PROGRESSIVE POLITICS by Colleen R. Jackson A thesis submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of the Master of Arts in Government Baltimore, Maryland May, 2021 © 2021 Colleen R. Jackson All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT The Vermont political environment is home to three, frequently lauded, unique attributes that separates it from other states. This thesis investigates why and how Vermont sees such a prevalence in split ticket voting, how the most successful third party in the country, the Vermont Progressive Party, has been able to establish and maintain success in Vermont for the last forty years, and investigates of the current state, successes, failures, and future of direct democracy in Vermont’s town meetings. The thesis then asks whether each of these elements is replicable outside of the Vermont political environment and what the implications are for expansion of these attributes to other states and nationwide. The research uses a range of methodologies: an IVR survey and in-depth follow up interviews for split ticket voters, in-depth interviews of members of the Vermont Progressive Party, and an online survey of Vermont town clerks. This thesis finds that split ticket voters in Vermont point to a number of reasons for splitting their ticket, most prominently, however, it is due to the close connection that Vermonters feel to their political representatives which can transcend party label. The Progressive Party’s success is largely due to Bernie Sanders’ proof of concept when he became mayor of Burlington, VT, in addition to community-building organization techniques, and a legislative environment that does not overly hinder third party candidates and parties.

  • Instant Runoff Voting Report 2006 Mayoral
    The Vermont Legislative Research Shop Instant Runoff Voting On March 7, 2006 the city of Burlington, Vermont utilized an instant run off voting system (IRV) to select its mayor. As a result Burlington’s mayor, Bob Kiss, is currently the only executive office holder in the US to be selected by the instant runoff voting system. The purpose of this report is to present the results of an exit poll The Vermont Legislative Research Shop conducted on the March 7th election. Before discussing the election and exit poll we will examine the use of IRV in other political jurisdictions and paradoxes associated with this type of voting system. Instant Runoff Voting (IRV) is also known as Alternative Voting, Ranked Choice, Preferential Voting, or the Hare System. For the purposes of this report we will refer to the system as IRV. IRV describes an electoral process in which voters can rank choices for a political office on a ballot. If one candidate is ranked first by over 50% of the voters, that candidate wins and the election is over. If no candidate receives over 50% of the votes in the first ranking then the candidate with the lowest number of votes is eliminated. The second rankings of voters who voted for the eliminated candidate are allotted to the remaining candidates. This process continues until one candidate receives over 50% of the vote. The first use on record of IRV was the colony of Queensland, Australia in 1893. The IRV method is presently used for electing the Australian House of Representatives. The President of Ireland is currently elected using IRV, as well as the Papua New Guinea National Parliament and the Fijian House of Representatives.1 Experience with IRV in the US IRV is used by several US cities, including: San Francisco, California for its Board of Selectmen election in 2004 and Cambridge, Massachusetts for its city council elections.
